Street Beets Oct. 3, 2015: 3 Markets Left, Indoor Markets & Turkey Orders

Posted in food trucks / market news

If you haven't noticed, it's now October and things are changing at the Market. We're getting ready to move indoors, comfort food is appearing on vendors' tables and vendors with summer produce are turning in for the winter. At the same time, there are a few vendors that are just arriving....


Street Beets Sept. 30, 2015: Pre-order Turkeys, Market Map & BC Fruit

Posted in food trucks / market news

It’s almost time to say goodbye to our lovely BC fruit truck. Kim’s Fresh Fruit will be at the Market tomorrow and Saturday, October 3rd, before returning to BC for the winter. They will have bosc pears and three varieties of apples (gala, mac and honeycrisp) available. The pears and apples...


Street Beets Sept. 26, 2015: 5 OUTDOOR MARKETS LEFT, Market Map & Summer Gems

Posted in food trucks / market news

At the first Market in March, it seems unfathomable that the last day of summer - and shortly after, the last outdoor Market - will come at all. And yet, it happens every year; the summer melts away before any of us have a chance to grasp it. Now, there are exactly five outdoor Markets left...


Street Beets Sept. 23, 2015: Market Map, Dragonscale & The Very Berry Bun Company

Posted in food trucks / market news / saskatoon berries

You're looking at 630 stainless steel rings and 130 titanium scales, a.k.a. a dragonscale choker. Jennifer, from Metal Majesty, spent 5 hours meticulously interlocking said 760 pieces. She also torched the scales to give them an iridescent quality. What's the purpose of scales, anyway; do...


Street Beets Sept. 19th, 2015: Market Map, Strawberries & PixieWinkle Jewelry

Posted in food trucks / market news

It's not a trick! I did not take this picture in June so I could post it in September; these are actually September strawberries! If you can believe it, Southland Colony has fresh strawberries currently available. They are grown outside (not in a greenhouse) and the cooler temperatures...


Street Beets Sept. 16th, 2015: Market Map, Brussels Sprouts & Pumpkin Pie

Posted in food trucks / market news

Recently, I've been amazed at the number of social media posts by our customers on the topic of Brussels sprouts. I'm amazed because I thought Brussels sprouts were still among the group of green veggies that seem to be generally disliked. And yet, photos of wide-smiling customers clutching...


Street Beets Sept. 9th, 2015: Cheang's Sinofood, Farm Eggs & Vendor Map

Posted in food trucks / market news

Cheang's Sinofood joined the RFM just this year, and is already known for having quality, homemade Chinese food. We new it would be good even without tasting, as Mr. Cheang's sister, Sunshine, is part owner of The Green Spot Cafe (home of Regina's best cinnamon buns). When Mr. Cheang...


Street Beets Sept. 5th, 2015: Mouse Melons, Millers By-Gone Farm and Vendor Map

Posted in food trucks / market news

Are you ever shocked to find out what can be grown in Saskatchewan these days? I am, but maybe a more accurate word is “impressed”. I’m talking about things like peaches, okra and this mouse melon. The appropriate term is “Mexican sour gherkin”, but I find "mouse melon" much more intriguing....


Street Beets September 2nd, 2015: Cookies, Corn, Vendor Map, & Hello September!

Posted in food trucks / market news

It's already September and RFM is still going strong. Many think that a farmers' market is strictly a summer event, but not for us! We're out on the Plaza until October 10th and then we move indoors, at 2065 Hamilton St., from October 17th to December 19th.  I call these summery little...


Street Beets August 29th, 2015: Martha's Garden, Gluten Free Bread and Vendor Map

Posted in food trucks / market news

Matha's Garden is one of our newest vendors at RFM, and they're beginning to make a splash. They specialize in pesticide-free rare and heirloom varieties of vegetables. So far, we've seen purple-podded peas, dragon's egg cucumbers, Paris market carrots, and traveler tomatoes. Martha's Garden...

Street Beets August 22nd, 2015: Street Benny, Market Baby, Wild Rice, and Map!

Posted in food trucks / market news

Everything at the Crave Food Truck is awesome, but one dish in particular is a stand-out for me. It's called Street Benny, a mobile-kitchen-friendly update on the traditional eggs benedict. Street Benny is like eggs benedict's rebellious teenage grandchild; it's a badass scotch egg, a stick in...

Street Beets September 28th, 2013: Too much to talk about? Yes!

  Did we ever make a good call on cancelling the September 26th Market under the Stars! It was a strange rain too; misty, windy, and much of the day. We look forward to better weather on October 3rd for the next Market under the Stars. I am looking forward to this last one. We might just...

Summer is ending, but RFM isn't!

Posted in food trucks / organic / saskatoon berries

Summer is visibly fading, and the busiest days of the market are over. With Autumn, however, comes another harvest and a wave of fresh Fall produce. The loyalty of our customers is indisputable, but they do tend to forget that RFM still exists after the new school season begins. Be assured that...

Posted in food trucks / Market under the Stars

This graphic is excellent! I always wondered what the favourite pies are. I looked through here and we have 7 of the 10 favourites at the Market. Pretty good. I wouldn't mind trying a Market Key Lime Pie, I better talk to one of the bakers. So, the last post listed off all the awesome...

We have Celebrities in Regina? Well yes we do! Let me tell you, they are an excited and community engaged bunch of people too. Personally I think you would have to drag me kicking and screaming to do a pie eating contest. Every single one of these contestants practically begged me to part of...
